I still remember the story of when Jeno James was convulsing on the floor and Saban stepped over him and continued to his office ignoring his player. Pathetic little man, just go away.

Tue, 18 Dec 2012 08:25:55 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1591870#comment-2190562I doubt seriously there are any NFL team concerns regarding his perceived preference for Culpepper over Brees to chase Saban.

Tue, 18 Dec 2012 06:51:17 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1591870#comment-2190528The college coach I want to see back in the big leagues is Jim Mora Jr.

Got caught up in the Vick debacle in Atlanta. Wasn’t given a fair shot with just one year as the head man of a bad Seattle team. Good ball coach. Really turned that UCLA program around.

Tue, 18 Dec 2012 06:49:02 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1591870#comment-2190526Can’t imagine any NFL team wanting this phony as a head coach.

Yeah, you can be a big phony and get away with it at the college level. Not in the big leagues, though.

Everytime you look up some college coach is leaving their players in the dust for a bigger program, but Saban’s a whole ‘nother story. Guy’s a snake oil salesman if I’ve ever seen one, right up there with Petrino and Todd Graham.

Whereas Payton looked him square in the eye and told Brees he wanted him to be his QB.

Not sure if its true

He has no salary caps, no risk on signing a free agent, and future first round picks galore to hand pick every year.

Give it up Schwarty, you’re season is done, and so is your stay in Detroit. Saban would be a huge upgrade for you. Give Harbaugh the Lions and they are in the playoffs, no question about it. Harbs gets the last laugh. Muahahaha

Then at Alabama, Cam Newton and Tim Tebow failed their physicals, so that is why he did not win every year.

Tue, 18 Dec 2012 02:47:05 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1591870#comment-2190231Yes, this is interesting timing. Wonder if there’s any one to confirm it.

Hindsight is 20/20 and if he’s considering another NFL run, he’d definitely want to clear up the Culpepper-over-Brees judgement error ’cause we know what the media will be talking about if indeed he makes a move to the Browns.
